Yes Amjad,

 

Virtualization is nothing but a layer where you can different instances = of Operating systems running on same machine.

Hello,

 

My manager has asked me to do a proof of concept on = old HP DL380 G6 Quadcore systems having 12GB RAM and 4*72GB SAS = Drives.

 

My question is it  possible to make a 2 node = hadoop cluster with this hardware?

 

I = have read that minimum HDD should be 1TB = .
